It’s Boxing Day … and the Beach is Calling!
After so much time in the kitchen and entertaining friends for the holidays I made sure to keep Boxing Day free! My invitation to like-minded friends was well-received: I had a full vehicle of people who were yearning to breathe in some fresh air, tromp through the woods and step onto a beach that hasContinue reading “It’s Boxing Day … and the Beach is Calling!”
And just like that…
…Christmas is over for another year! We enjoyed watching our two little rascals opening their stocking gifts! They kept us entertained with their excitement, discovering a new toy, pulling on them, stealing them from each other and claiming them back. Besides preparing a turkey dinner with all the trimmings to share with neighbours I amContinue reading “And just like that…”
Happy Holidays…
From our house to yours, to all friends, family, past and future tour participants: Happy holidays! May your stockings be filled with good cheer!

And watching the wind create amazing patterns… Happy Friday, friends!
Winter Solstice Blessings
Yesterday’s glorious sunset promised a beautiful day ahead. Well, Mother Nature had a different idea. We woke up to strong winds and grey sky. Friends who had expressed interest in participating in the hike decided against battling the elements. The fact that there is no such thing as bad weather when one has proper clothingContinue reading “Winter Solstice Blessings”
Sunsets
If tonight’s sunset is any indication of what tomorrow brings I am predicting a spectacular Solstice hike…
Two more sleeps…
…until the guided Winter Solstice Hike to Clarke Head. At this time there are no registrations. It does not deter me. I am packing and getting ready. I recently invested in some audio visual accessories to capture video of my hike destinations. No matter whether I hike solo on Thursday or others join me atContinue reading “Two more sleeps…”
Winter Wind!
The weather predictions are real: it has been very windy all day, a typical pre-winter day with rain and wind. I couldn’t resist stopping at First Beach on the way home from appointments. Enjoy!
Feeling a bit like Christmas here
…if the Santa collection isn’t doing the trick… …perhaps a tray of home baking will do the trick.
Storm in the forecast
Monday’s forecast predicts storm activity. I love a good storm with great wave action… let’s see if I can capture some new video footage. Stay tuned!
Chill in the Air…
…winter arrives soon!
Filling the hours…
…creating a book nook and baking Christmas cookies.
Blue Sky – No Snow
After a warm and windy day yesterday the air was chilly… but the white stuff had disappeared!
The Driftwood Log…
…hiding sparkling treasures. Happy Sunday!

Answering the call…
…of the beach! Planning has begun for the annual Winter Solstice hike to Clarke Head. Check back tomorrow for details. If the video above is intriguing mark your calendar for December 21st when you could be part of the 2023 Solstice celebration and enjoy this view!
Planning ahead…
My goal for tomorrow: Clarke Head. Working on getting my lung capacity back to where it was before I got sick mid-November. The cough is persistent and do very tiring! The tide for tomorrow is perfect for a mid-day hike on the beach.
Jewels along the way…
When the sun illuminates the frosty jewels covering weeds and evergreens the world sparkles!
